This is known issue, that shouldOverrideUrlLoading don’t catch POST. See http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=9122 for details. Use GET! I personally tried using POST, because I expected some limitation of GET parameters (i.e. length of URL), but I just successfully passed 32000 bytes through GET locally without any problems.

This error actually stems from outside of your application in most cases (occasionally it’s just a missing INTERNET permission, but that doesn’t sound like the case here). I was typing out an explanation, but found a much more straightforward example that doubles as an explanation in this answer to another question. Here’s the relevant bits, … Read more
As per documenation it is NOT possible to support TLS 1.0 in WebView in Android < 4.3. For Android 4.4 it is disabled by default. Check this chart for support of TLS 1.0 in different browsers: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transport_Layer_Security#Web_browsers
I don’t know what your exact problem is, but i can enable the JavaScript and a custom WebViewclient without any problem: WebView vistaWeb = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.webview); vistaWeb.setWebChromeClient(new MyCustomChromeClient(this)); vistaWeb.setWebViewClient(new MyCustomWebViewClient(this)); vistaWeb.clearCache(true); vistaWeb.clearHistory(); vistaWeb.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true); vistaWeb.getSettings().setJavaScriptCanOpenWindowsAutomatically(true);
To get past the blank page you do this: webview.setWebViewClient(new LikeWebviewClient(this)); private class LikeWebviewClient extends WebViewClient { @Override public void onPageFinished(WebView view, String url) { Log.d(TAG, “onPageFinished url: ” +url); // Facebook redirects to this url once a user has logged in, this is a blank page so we override this // http://www.facebook.com/connect/connect_to_external_page_widget_loggedin.php?………… if(url.startsWith(“http://www.facebook.com/connect/connect_to_external_page_widget_loggedin.php”)){ String … Read more
